    Hot bath, noise cancelling headphones, movie, massive jug of water (hot bath will make you sweaty)… Pretty good way to treat yourself

    no fork visible so I guess they’re just gonna eat it by hand, which in a way makes no dressing kinda make sense

    Is there some kind of benefit to putting rose petals in water, or is it just supposed to look pretty?

    I simply don’t get the appeal. Having to clean up/unclog petals from a draining bathtub sounds like it would negate the peaceful, relaxing energy that a bath provides, doesn’t it?

    Same question for rose petals in a bed. Peeling squished petals off my skin sounds like an annoying interruption to a sexy/romantic night, not something that adds value. Do people actually do either of these things IRL? Or are they just used to symbolize “romance” in media?

      It looks good in pictures. Real humans don’t do that unless copying a picture they saw, and th n they never do it again.

      Definitely the symbology aspect, fresh rose petals are inconvenient as hell. I did the bed thing for my girlfriend one year for our anniversary but used fake fabric petals. No sticking, and I saved them for the next occasion. Your points are exactly the reason why I did that.

      A lor of places have mesh around the drain that would catch them. The even make plastic things to stick over top for that purpose. I think it’s for image and aroma.

    30 seconds in I’d need to sneeze unexpectedly, knock everything over and then sit in a mixture of soapy water, veggies, a broken tablet, spilled wine and blood that squishes out of the cuts caused by the broken glass.

      Don’t worry, with those flower stuffs already in the bath, a few slices of cucumber won’t make much of a difference. Bringing a tablet into a bathtub was already a bad idea to begin with, so a submarining android was the expected outcome anyway.

    I never have dressing on my salad, I think a lot of people don’t. Salads are healthy, dressings are not.

      There are plenty of dressings that aren’t unhealthy: simple vinnaigrettes, ginger dressing, sesame dressing. Homemade dressings without all the sugar and emulsifiers are usually fine.

      Dunno about the health part but the taste is fine without dressing as well. Pretty good even. And it’s less effort.

    You want the salad to wear clothes in a bath? Are you Mormon?

    I guess it’s undressed because you’re suppose to pick at it with your fingers while you’re lounging.

    If you’re eating healthy, it makes sense to skip the salad dressing. It’s the lack of utensils that gets me

    You all laugh at this, but I have done this exact thing.

    It may have been Taco Bell instead of a salad sometimes, but… I mean… I do recommend it.

    Not the Taco Bell part. The other part.

        I mean, I’m far from the most dextrous human on the planet, but so far I’ve managed to sneeze a piece of wood into oblivion.

        If anything I’ve been a lot closer to cracking my skull by being momentarily unable to stand upright in the shower. I guess your mileage may vary.

    And a web connected camera in an Apple tablet that is just showing the home screen because that is super interesting as opposed to a book worth reading…

      Ah the camera doesn’t matter, nudity can be generated on demand these days. Can’t say I’m a fan of that fact, but it was always inevitable.
